This book has been created in such a different way, it looks like a regular journal and it has photos, letters, postcards, pieces of paper and all sorts of mementos "stuck" in it. Some of it is journal entries, poetry and song lyrics. I think it allows you some insight into who Courtney is and the journey she has been on.
I was very moved by this piece that she wrote in the authors note,
" Love really is the answer - love for humanity, love for self, love for family, love for one another, and love for your friends. Love is the highest human function and I am proud to have so many loved ones and to be loved. It makes life worth living. Blessings Courtney Love"
Carrie Fisher wrote the introduction and this was a very insightful piece not just to who she sees when she is with Courtney but also (I feel) about celebrities in general. Today's world is so obsessed with celebrities and the media (I feel) has gotten beyond control. Just because someone decides they want to sing or act and be on the stage, doesnt mean they want their personal life to be on the stage.
I could write more and more, but instead I will let you read the book:) The title is a link to Amazon.
